At the very least, I expected "sure thing" upgrades/sequels like Taiko Wii 3, Momotaru 2011, SW3 Empires or whatever to be announced by now.  About all we've really gotten recently announced was another Active Life game (lol), Earth Seeker (looks awesome, but will probably bomb), NMH2 (late!) and Inazmua Eleven Strikers (which isn't even an RPG any longer).  Not exactly great. :/

On the other hand, TGS has never been strong in terms of Wii announcements, so this isn't exactly a change or anything.  I expect the fall conference to be mostly 3DS, but for Wii's sake Nintendo better have some holiday 3rd party wares lined up for the system.

I mean, from a sales standpoint it probably doesn't even need them.  It's still seeling well, and Nintedno is doing like 95% of the heavy lifting.  Donkey Kong and Kirby should do the trick for a while a keep sales rolling along.

Oh, I think system sales are going to truck along okay, at least through year's end and probably next spring, but they could've been so much better.  Wii really *should* be the new PS2, but 3rd parties have basically prevented that from happening themselves, and really that's as much to their detriment as it is Nintendo's.  Better luck for all next cycle.
